I will trade in 10 of those kob (that one in the pic was 64cm) for a skippy any day. And this one was no exceptional specimen either. At least not by local standards anyway.

oday I decided to really try the buck tail jig which I have never really been a fan of having no success on any other lures after my 3rd cast I finally nailed my first leerie on a lure and o my did It run... It hit and bolted!!a hell of a fight and finally landed it on what the locals call a Gamtoos special (locals as I only moved here about 2 weeks ago)... 68cm caught in the swartkops and successfully released!! I would love to target skippies aswell but not sure where and what to use if anybody can help please much appreciated... Looking forward to catching a lot down here

Then it was 2 casts later when the guy I was hoping to catch arrived. Think I landed in its mouth but it was 3 tweeks and ON!.
I must say I was chuffed to have a new lure do and deliver exactly what I was expecting it to do.

hi. It was a CARA clinic. Its about the species that live in the estuaries and their movement and life patterns with some advise on how to target and handel them for a safe release once you have landed them.

Been trying to book another one the last 6 months but time has not been friendly and the mate I do them with has had a hectic schedule.
We doing something in PA soon for the World Fish Migration Day. We had planned for PE but all venues were booked and with 3 comps on from deepsea to the Tiger bay 1000 timing has not worked out.
